In 1977 & 78, the BBC produced a collection of Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe stories. The series was produced by John Tydeman, dramatized by Bill Morrison, and featured an American actor,Ed Bishop as Marlowe. Unlike Gerald Mohr's perpetually angry potrayal in the 50's, Bishop's deadpan delivery was a better fit to Chandler's spare style. I don't know who did the music, but it was great.
